Default 60k service. Suggestion on fluids

I'm about to hit 60k. I plan on doing spark plugs, diff fluid and brake rotor, pads and flush. What oil are you guys running in the diff and brakes? I was thinking in Amsoil and super blue or motul. Any suggestion? Also any good website to order rotors? Any good word on oe rotor from r1?

I've read the rotors hold up well... They're gonna be my choice of purchase in a few weeks.

The rear diff i'd do either redline or amsoil, they're great oils!

Amsoil is a great motor oil too!

motul > super blue
super blue = amsoil

So my opinion would be Motul for brake fluid and Amsoil for everything else. Only reason Motul for brakes is because it has a higher boiling point.
